Open source always has the original ideas

Apple is so, so totally ripping off open source stuff. For instance, compare the new features of Safari 3 with Firefox 2: 1) Rip off tabs. Firefox has had them for a while. 2) Web inspector: Firefox has a very popular extension called Firebug, and the new Safari web inspector is so totally ripped off straight from Firebug, with a nice iTunesy GUI. 3) Restore previous session. I believe Firefox 1 had this, and Firefox 2+ definitely has it. So totally ripped off. In fact I think apple is very into open source, as you can see: 1) The Mac OS X kernel, Darwin, is open source. You can get the source code straight from apple. 2) Mac OS X uses OpenGL graphics software, which is self-explanatarily open source. 3) The apple developing software, XCode, uses GCC C compiler for compiling (which I believe is developed by GNU and is open source). 4) Mac OS X's shell is GNU Bash, and alot of other GNU tools come with OS X, such as: nano; emacs; and a few others. So to a certain extent, Apple is incorporating open source into their own software, and also incorporate features into their proprietary software that were originally in open source projects a long time ago. See what I mean? Open source always has the original ideas. But when you take microsoft into the argument, apple suddenly seem like the open source people. Microsoft, undoubtedly, rips off apple and that doesn't even need any examples, work them out yourself. So you can think of it as a kind of chain: first open source projects such as firefox develop the original ideas; then apple rips them off; then M$ rip off apple. Now that's what I call third rate, literally. Hooray for open source!!! And fuck M$.

Stable web browser for GNU/Linux

Firefox is the web browser that comes on nearly all GNU/Linux distros, and often is the sole one (i.e. there is no other preinstalled web browser). But the truth is, firefox under GNU/Linux is still very buggy, and I reckon it should be considered a beta. But GNU/Linux users: don't dispair! There are two other web browsers that aren't so buggy (and alot more if you use google 8-0); namely Epiphany and Konqueror. Konqueror comes with KDE as part of the package, so if you use KDE and haven't tried out Konqueror for web browsing, give it a go. I can tell you it's one of the best out there. For GNOME users, try out epiphany (most users will have to download and install the package as it doesn't come with many (if not any) GNOME distros). Epiphany is very stable, but it's not nearly as feature rich as Firefox. Use epiphany if you want a good, stable web browser that doesn't crash all too often (in fact I am typing this under epiphany right now ;D), but isn't too feature rich either. Both Epiphany and Konqueror run on either platform (GNOME or KDE) but generally, Konqueror will run better on KDE and Epiphany will run better on GNOME (that goes for lot's of other apps too). For Xfce/Fluxbox/[insert obscure desktop environment here] users, you probably know what you're doing! ;)
